Giuseppe & Team

For me, Italian cuisine has never been just about recipes—it’s about preserving traditions, sharing knowledge and creating memorable experiences through food.

I founded Rome Pizza & Pasta School with a simple vision: to offer visitors from around the world the opportunity to learn authentic Italian cooking in a welcoming, hands-on environment where everyone actively participates. Over the years, that vision has grown into one of Rome’s leading cooking schools, welcoming thousands of international guests every year.

My specialization is authentic Neapolitan pizza, fresh handmade pasta, dough development, fermentation techniques and traditional Italian cooking methods. Every class is designed to be practical, engaging and accessible, allowing guests of every skill level to prepare authentic Italian dishes with confidence.

Rather than simply demonstrating recipes, I believe in teaching the principles behind them. Understanding ingredients, mastering techniques and learning why each step matters gives every participant the confidence to recreate the experience long after returning home.

Throughout the years I have had the privilege of collaborating with internationally recognized companies and professional partners who share the same commitment to quality and authenticity. These collaborations allow our guests to learn using professional equipment, premium Italian ingredients and modern teaching resources while remaining faithful to traditional Italian culinary heritage.

Today, I work alongside an outstanding team of professional chefs who share the same philosophy and passion for teaching. Together, we strive to ensure that every guest—whether joining a shared class, a private experience, a family workshop or a corporate event—receives the same level of attention, professionalism and genuine Italian hospitality.

Seeing former guests recreate our recipes at home, share them with family and friends and return to Rome years later is the greatest reward for everything we do. It reminds us that cooking is much more than preparing a meal—it is a way of bringing people together across cultures, generations and languages.

I look forward to welcoming you personally to Rome Pizza & Pasta School and sharing with you the authentic flavors, techniques and traditions that have inspired my career.

Behind every class is a passionate team of professional chefs led by Giuseppe de Rosa, founder and head instructor of the school. Together, we combine traditional Italian techniques, high-quality ingredients, practical teaching and genuine hospitality to create memorable culinary experiences for families, couples, private groups and corporate teams.

Whether you’re preparing your first Neapolitan pizza, learning to make fresh handmade pasta or exploring advanced Italian cooking techniques, our goal is always the same: to help you cook with confidence while experiencing the true spirit of Italian cuisine.

Every member of our team shares the same commitment to authenticity, professionalism and the joy of teaching, ensuring that every guest enjoys an unforgettable experience in Rome.
